Electrical Definitions |
I.C. (Integrated Circuit) : A type of circuit in which all the parts are integrated on a single silicon chip of very small size. |
Ikonophone : An experimental apparatus combining Television by line currents with telephony to render the distant speaker's face visible. |
Impact Ionization : Ionization of an atom or molecule due to loss of orbital electrons following a high energy collision. |
Impedance : The property of a circuit,depending upon frequency,inductance, capacitance and resistance which determines the current produced by a given alternating voltage in that circuit. |
Index Register : A register used for indexed addressing in a microprocessor. |
Indexing : The modification of the address of the operand contained in the instruction of a microprocessor. |
Inversion : It is a process of conversion of a high level to a low level or from a low level to a high level. |
Inverter : The digital circuit that performs the inversion operation. |
Inductance : Inductance is the property of AC circuits which opposes any changes in the amount of current.It is denoted by letter L and its unit is henry(H). |
Inductance Drop : The part of voltage drop along an alternating current transmission line or in a transformer etc. due to the Inductance of the line or apparatus. |
Isolator: A two port device having much greater attenuation in one direction of propogation than in the opposite direction. |
Isolator Resonance: An Isolator,whose operation depend upon absorption in a gyromagnetic resonance frequency. |
Isolation Diode: Diodes formed by collector substrate junction in bipolar integrated circuits to maintain isolation between parts of integrated circuit junction by reverse biasing the junction. |
